Read scripts aloud in your own language and accent, as paid work from home. It suits anyone who reads aloud clearly and has a quiet room to record in.
What the work is for
Your recordings help train speech recognition systems. You read scripts written to cover the language you record in.
The work
- Read each prompt exactly as written.
- Keep your pace, your distance to the device and your setup the same through a session.
- Re-record the takes that fail the automatic audio check.
What to expect
- Before you record, the platform takes you through a microphone test and an intake step.
- Scripts and recording guidelines vary by project.
What you bring
- Your own device to record on.
- A quiet room to record in.
You need
- Clear reading aloud in the language you record in.
- Consent to be recorded, signed for each project in an agreement that sets how the recordings may be used.
- 18 years or older.
Good to know
- Not every device or room passes the audio check.
